Lala Land Lodge, hotel in Kizimkazi

Lala Land Lodge has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and restaurant in Kizimkazi.

We had a fantastic stay (5 nights) at Lala Land Lodge. Frida and Ben are the lovely, super friendly and chilled couple who run this small family eco-lodge located in beautiful surroundings right in front of the sea. The staff is ultra nice and helpful. We especially loved Hawa with her beautiful energy and professionalism. She is pure sunshine. It is a place that is especially suited for those who seek peace and tranquility as it is a bit secluded. We had delicious and very nutritious breakfasts included with our stay and the rest of the food is excellent and the portions generous. The pool is a mix of salt water and fresh water which we found way better than chlorine pools. Note that for the showers and sink it’s the same. But you are provided with buckets of fresh water to rinse. Basically, we highly recommend Kizimkazi and Lala Land Lodge.

A beautiful beach front lodge in the fishing village of Kizimkazi. Perfect for a quiet getaway. The staff are very helpful and go out of their way to make you comfortable. For its remote location the facilities such as food, accomodation, internet and hot water in the shower were surprisingly good.

    This place has an amazing ambient and a beautiful soul!

    This place has an amazing ambient and a beautiful soul! It was like a hub for the coolest people from every country, looking for a peaceful, extremely relaxed vacation in a bit of wilderness, heartfelt conversations with alcohol next to the fire… it’s all in the package, and as a bonus you get one of the best teams - owners and staff members that are right there for you literally every minute. Thank you all guys- Benjamin, Annick, Cliffton, Melania, Elisabeth and others whose names we did not get to know;) You were all so amazing that even after two weeks it was a pity to leave. We look forward to meeting you all again! PS. A big thanks to Cliffton for recommending us Malaika, We enjoyed it to the fullest ;-)

    It’s a very quiet and enjoyable place and you can book lots of activities from there but overall there is not much going outside the hotels. The public beach doesn’t have any good restaurants or shops so you’re pretty much tied to your resort.

    The staff and the hotell facilties are the absulute best. The location is more quiet then other places, they do not have a beach like Kendwa but it you are just looking to relax a couple of days this does not matter. It is like on a little cliff, sooo nice!

    Kizimkazi is a village, although in fact there are 2 distinct and separate areas, with 2 beaches. The rest of the area is comprised of large, private self-contained resorts with their own private stairways. There is not much to explore, but boat owners offer big-game fishing and dolphin-watching. There are only 2 restaurants, although some of the private resorts offer their restaurants to the public; but at a price. Hardly any touting which is nice; 3 or 4 days is probably sufficient to see all there is to see.

    Very friendly staff, everyone is ready to help if there are any problems! The vibe: hakuna matata! I will definitely recommend everyone I know to stay at Promised Land Lodge during their ZNZ visit. Just keep in mind that it isn’t near big cities or so, but that was the reason we booked our stay there. Quiet place, friendlier people than in Stone Town (definitely!), all sorts of activities that you can do, forest vibes. I fell in love with Kizimkazi :) Asante sana for everything ❤️

    This hotel and its staff is amazing, and I can NOT understand some of the negative posts here. Before traveling, those negative comments really dampened our excitement to go there, but they absolutely have no basis. We had a lovely time, in a beautiful resort, with good food and friendly staff. Yes, you might find even nicer or maybe newer or more fancy resorts, but then you can easily double the price you pay. We were totally happy and will very likely come back!

    The staff and manager were incredibly helpful, nice and tried their hardest to make us feel welcome. Restaurant has a pretty decent selection of multiple cuisines and everything is tasty, especially their cake! The hotel is located on first line with direct exit to beach. Perfect for watching sunset with a nice cocktail! We had a special reason for our trip, and they went on extra lengths to make our stay special. Definitely would stay here again!

    Very nice and calm place to stay. Salida Beach is located in a quiet corner of Kizimkazi, you can walk easily to the village if you need something. Tasty and fresh breakfast and also good food if you want to eat in the hotel restaurant. From the property you can go down directly to the ocean and during the low tide walk by the beach. People working there are very friendly and helpful. Thanks for nice service :) I fully recommend.

    The most beautiful property I stayed at in Zanzibar! Backdrop absolutely beautiful, with the most amazing sunsets every night. The bungalows were amazing, with an outdoor shower/bathroom which really adds to the charm. They offer kayaks and paddle boards for free, you can take right out on the ocean. They have a nice restaurant on-site and the staff were really lovely. I can’t recommend this place enough :-)

    Amazing place! We had a great time. Sea View bungalow. It was very easy to get into the sea via the property. No need to go over public beach. Pool was lovely enough chairs. Great breakfast and restaurant. Lovely campfire in the evening. And we even saw some monkey on the property luckily the massai was there to help. Amazing owner! A hidden treasure we were very happy to end our holiday over here

    We LOVED kizikula! The food was outstanding, the views were incredible, and the staff were all warm and welcoming. The architecture of the space is stunning - the way it plays off the surrounding beauty is breathtaking. I absolutely recommend kizikula for anyone traveling to Zanzibar. It is a hidden paradise. If you are into yoga the sunset yoga is PHENOMENAL.

    Lovely lodge. If you want to really get disconnected and away from city life, this is the place! All the huts are within 200ft of the beach and the lodge is isolated and quiet. But an easy walk into the local village of Kizimkazi, or a taxi ride to Jambiani, Paje and other haunts. Hotel owners are gracious and attentive and the staff delightful!

    This is a very nice, very small paradise in the end of the world. Food was good, people very warmly welcoming and friendly. We only left the property for snorkeling right in front of the hotel. If you are looking for something that is NOT a huge resort and few people to enjoy the beautiful view on the sea and colours, this is great.
